Moving Autism Forward by Team TACA 
Information on the potency of Suramin for autism healing is promising but not available. Parents of autistic children find it frustrating when a medication is not accessible despite its promising healing properties.
The research process takes time plus a pandemic moved timelines. We are hopeful to hear updates next year. In the meantime how can TACA help your family?
I’d do anything to get my hands on this, my kids aren’t improving with their therapies and are still nonverbal. Is there no way to be involved earlier than 2024? I’m willing to waive any liability. My kids are so far behind.
That’s not how science works. Unfortunately it has to finish and be FDA approved to be readily available.
Please reach out to TACA at http://www.tacanow.org for what you can do now to help your child. Thank you
Can my son be part of your trials?

How can I sign my son up for the study? When is the next Suriman study happening?

I’m following suramin since 2017. I hope in a next study also girls would be included and not only severe autistic boys.
It would be a good thing if also high functioning autistic children would be included to see if they can improve as well.
Future studies depend on this next phase!
